No-longer Missing Manifesto

One of the things I promised myself when I started this blog, oh, yesterday, was that I would refrain from linking to McCovey Chronicles. I've been reading Grant since the WFB days, and I knew I could probably find an excuse to link to anything he writes. But today he has a post every Giants fan should read.

There is nothing inherently wrong with San Francisco baseball fans. Breathe it in. Repeat it. There is nothing inherently wrong with San Francisco baseball fans. There is no societal or communal groupthink that makes us cheer for Barry Bonds. It seems obvious to point out. A double helix of idiocy will not be discovered in a Southern California lab while mapping out the Giants fan genome. There is nothing inherently wrong with San Francisco baseball fans.

As was said often during the Cold War, "He's a bastard, but he's our bastard." Amen.
